I had to concede that she does know him better than he knows himself, after twenty years; not because she has seen into his soul but because she hasn’t: she’s seen what he’s done, repeatedly, for twenty years. That’s who he is, regardless of who he says he is.

About PHOON ME:
This group is for posting pictures of interesting places where a good phoon can be done. Rules for the Phoon pose Stand sideways to the camera. (A Phoon is always viewed from the side.)
Bend your arms at the elbows. (Look like an athletic runner, not a ballerina.)
Lift your rear elbow (not your hand) so that it is easy to see behind your back.
Lean forward at the waist. This will help you look more energetic and will help you lift your rear ankle.
When possible, do not look at the camera and do not smile.
Either arm can be the rear arm. Either leg can be the rear leg. Show something interesting.
Even though the Phoon pose is the uniting, artistic element of the picture, it is not what makes the pictures interesting.
Not interesting:
an ordinary Phoon in an ordinary location
a Phoon that occupies too much of the photo and hides the interesting background detail

Daniel Bogan’s interviewing the Flickr staff with the same questions he uses for The Setup. You can read my entire response here, but my favorite question is “What would be your dream setup?”. Here’s what I said:
We’re at a really fascinating point in hardware development right now, which makes it difficult to answer this question. My knee-jerk answer is that I want the Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer combined with an iPad combined with the Cintiq combined with, you know, a Cray supercomputer or something else equally powerful.
The problem is, really, handwriting recognition; if you’ve ever tried to use the iPad with an external keyboard, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Switching from typing to writing or drawing and back is a fucking pain. Regular notebooks allow you to draw and write without changing your hand position, which doesn’t seem like a luxury until you try actually working on a tablet and then find you need to input text.
SJ may think that styli are inelegant, but the fact is, using a pen to write or draw on paper is both comfortable and easy; it’s just not as fast as typing. Most people are content with inputting data via a keyboard, and this makes sense for a lot of jobs: marketing, business development, finance, and programming, for example. But for the designers, there’s a big gap between starting the creative process and executing the product design *because* it’s much easier to sketch out your ideas on paper, with a pen, than a computer.
And this is unfortunate; in the future, we should have computers that allow us to keep contexts for different stages of product development. The iPad and ThinkPads are steps in the right direction, but they’re still awfully clumsy, which is why, in part, people criticize the iPad as a product for mere consumption.
I want a Moleskine that is a blindingly superfast computer. That’s my dream setup.
